Default tire suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I don't:
do track events, switch tires for the different seasons in Michigan, like noisy tires

I do:
drive somewhat sporty (no squawking tires), enjoy a nice looking tire so I'm not goignt o sacrifice the profile for a donut looking thing..

Looking for more comfort and all weather with occasional sporty driving essentially. What do you guys recommend. I'm driving down to Atlanta on the 24th and would like to get them on b4 I leave.

I was looking at continental extreme contact sports for my old A4 because they rated so well and were pretty damn cheap, but I don't know how they'd be in the lower profile of the TT tires.

I have some sort of Kuhmo on there now but the fronts are nearly bald and they are loud as hell. My buddy bought them from one persons recommendation of being the "best tire ever" (yeah I know he's dumb)

Default I recently went with the Bridgestone RE750s.

Did a ton of research online before I bought them. My criteria were very similar to yours. Seemed like the best overall, mid priced tire on TireRack.com. Several people on the forum have them too.

Default Try Falken GRB FK451 from EdgeRacing.com. Great tire for the money...>>

I have used the PZero Nero M+S and think they are great for what they are. Very quiet and handles very good in the dry. The Falkens are a summer tire and are better in the wet as well as dry. (They aren't bad in the snow either as I found out this past weekend).

Hope this helps

I thought RE750s were summers?
